    It is the losses that matter and we own the tie breaker.

    Umm, ok. Portland can finish with 28 losses. If Houston wins tomorrow and loses the rest if the games, we would finish with 29 losses. Does that make sense to you?

    So you actually believe we will lose the rest of our games? We won't. Why even bother with that garbage. We have the 4th seed. Deal with it jackass.

    :rolleyes: Oh man, you can't be that dense? Someone asked if we clinch the fourth seed tomorrow, if we win against Denver. The answer is we do only if Portland loses. And I explained how Portland can still get the fourth seed.

    That was entertaining to watch.

    The knee jerk in the thread during the 1st half was hilarious. The Lakers are a glorified D-team right now. I kind of figured the Rockets would come out coasting.

    I figure McHale tore them a new one at half time, and to humor him they came out and put the game away. 49 points in a quarter, 115 by the end of the 3rd. 145 points to win is Just nuts.

    And I'm okay with our guys not killing themselves playing defense as long as they had the game put away by the end of the 3rd. I honestly don't expect them to go too crazy this close to the play offs, especially against a terrible team like the Lakers. Young teams are notorious for not maintaining focus against teams they know are trash, the difference is that unlike early in the season they're making sure to put the game away.

    As long as they came out of half time and took care of business I'm willing to chalk it up to screwing around. I think they all know that all they want is to avoid injury and get the deep bench players time on the court. They've pretty much got the 4th seed locked up and they know it.

    Definitely not their finest performance, but how much can you really complain when they set a season record 145 points on the Lakers... in LA. On national television.

    Glorified exhibition game. :)

    Still upset over something he did last year? Dude had a hand in us playing well. His absence may or may not be a net neutral, but you want consistency heading into the playoffs. Objectivity, friend.

    Ok, after seeing your exchange with Clarinetmonster, you must be trolling me right? Seriously, tell me please that you're trolling and aren't serious about this?

    No he's not (In general).

    He makes more assists (per minute)
    than any front court player (C/PF/SF)
    except Parsons.

    Actually, Omri's number of assists per 36 minutes
    not only exceeds that of TJ, D-Mo, Ham, Garcia & DH12 -
    It's higher than Canaan's!... :eek:

    If you take his role into account
    (Catch-n-shooter off the bench)
    I'd say he even has a tendency to over-pass! :grin:

    Of course dude. I know it's not mathematically impossible to lose the 4th seed but you have a better chance of winning the lottery than us losing out while Portland wins out. And clarinetmonster is a compete troll btw. He's almost as bad as that honeybager dip****.

    How about focusing on the fact that the lakers gave up 145 pts. What a clueless d-bag.

    He's just trying to find a silver lining for his Washington Generals.
